Who better to watch the Oscars with than the foremost authority on movies?

If you're going to watch the Oscars next month, why not do it with one of the foremost authorities on movies?

OK, we can't guarantee you any one-on-one time with Richard Roeper, but the renowned movie critic will be hosting Hub 51's Oscars party on Feb. 22.

Several projection screens will be set up throughout the restaurant and cocktails and hors d'oeuvres will be served. We're hoping those will be free, because tickets are $125 each. Raffle prizes will also be given away and valet parking is free.

Organizers say the suggested attire is "Chicago/La Fashionista cool," which we're guessing is boots, parkas and gloves this time of year.
